There are many ways in determining a woman’s pregnancy fertility period. This is useful both for couples who desires to have a child and for those who wants to avoid getting pregnant the natural way. These methods are the basal temperature measurement, by mucus ovulation method. The good thing about this method is that it is ideal that this should be done with the collaboration or cooperation of the partner. Getting pregnant after all is not a unilateral undertaking.

This may not be that accurate compared to the mucus ovulation method but getting the basal temperature of a woman is a good way in bolstering the result of the mucus ovulation method. As you can see, when a woman is fertile, her body temperature rises during ovulation until her menstruation period comes or while she is pregnant. In getting the basal temperature, this should be done in the morning after the woman has woken up. The woman should not have been engaged in any physical activity so that the rise in the temperature will not be attributed to the effort she exerted. The pregnancy fertility result would indicate that there is a 0.5 degree Celsius rise in her temperature if she is fertile.

Going to the mucus ovulation method, there are some things to remember so that you will be able to get the accurate results. First, conduct the mucus inspection in midday, not after shower, swimming or peeing. The result why it should be conducted in midday is that usually lovemaking is conducted at night, we do not want to get mistaken the seminal fluid of the male partner as the woman’s mucus excretion. Second, this method should make use of a chart. The chart should indicate the different characteristics of the mucus for different days. If done correctly, this will serve as your guide for the next month assuming that the tracking of your mucus was done during a regular menstruation period. The variation for a woman’s fertility would usually be only slightly different from the previous month. Hence, the chart will give you an idea when to give the go signal for lovemaking or when you and your partner should abstain. The pregnancy fertility indicators that you should be on the lookout through the characteristics of the woman’s mucus are the dry, sticky but not stretchy, sticky and stretchy and the egg-white type of mucus. Mucus is a natural discharge from the woman’s vagina. Making use of a panty liner is a good way in catching and observing the different discharges. When nothing appears in the panty liner, this means that the woman is dry and that she is not fertile. When the mucus emitted is sticky but not stretchy, this means that the woman is starting to ovulate but it is still okay to have sex during this time but with caution because more or less, the next mucus would be sticky and stretchy, indicating that the woman is already fertile. Bear in mind that sperm cells can survive 2-3 days inside the woman’s vagina. If you and your partner aiming for pregnancy, then it is recommended that you have constant sex when the mucus is sticky and stretchy to egg white and until the next three days.
